حَدَّثَنَا إِبْرَاهِيمُ قَالَ: نَا أُمَيَّةُ بْنُ بِسْطَامٍ قَالَ: نَا يَزِيدُ بْنُ زُرَيْعٍ قَالَ: نَا رَوْحُ بْنُ الْقَاسِمِ، عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ عَجْلَانَ، عَنْ أَبِي الزِّنَادِ، عَنِ الْأَعْرَجِ، عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ، عَنِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ:
أَنَّ امْرَأَتَيْنِ أَتَتَا دَاوُدَ ﷺ قَدْ أَكَلَ أَحَدَ ابْنَيْهِمَا الذِّئْبُ، تَخْتَصِمَانِ فِي الْبَاقِي، فَقَضَى بِهِ دَاوُدُ لِلْكُبْرَى، فَلَمَّا خَرَجَتَا عَلَى سُلَيْمَانَ قَالَ: كَيْفَ قَضَى بَيْنَكُمَا ؟ فَأَخْبَرَتَاهُ، فَقَالَ: ائْتُونِي بِالسِّكِّينِ، قَالَ أَبُو هُرَيْرَةَ: أَوَّلُ مَنْ سَمِعْتُهُ يَقُولُ السِّكِّينَ مِنْ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ أَنَا، كُنَّا نُسَمِّيهَا الْمُدْيَةَ، فَقَالَتِ الصُّغْرَى: لِمَ ؟ قَالَ: لِأَشُقَّهُ بَيْنَكُمَا، فَقَالَتِ: ادْفَعْهُ إِلَيْهَا، فَقَضَى بِهِ سُلَيْمَانُ لِلصُّغْرَى، وَقَالَ: لَوْ كَانَ ابْنَكِ لَمْ تَرْضَيْ أَنْ تَشُقِّيهِ

✧ Two women came to Dawud ﷺ —a wolf had eaten one of their two sons—and they were disputing over the remaining one. Dawud judged it for the older woman. When they went out, they came to Sulayman, and he said, 'How did he judge between you?' They told him, and he said, 'Bring me a knife.' Abu Hurayrah said, 'I was the first person I heard say "knife" from the Messenger of Allah ﷺ; we used to call it a blade.' The younger woman said, 'Why?' He said, 'To split him between you two.' She said, 'Give him to her.' So Sulayman judged it for the younger woman, and he said, 'If he were your son, you would not have been willing to split him.'
